Joe Gambino, Sr has had a passion for cars since he was a young boy. Growing up in Brooklyn, New York he was afforded many opportunities, but none compared to his dreams of one day owning his own car dealership.
In 1956 Mr. Gambino and his wife moved to Phoenix, AZ and purchased Bobby Unser Chevrolet in 1983. The store was renamed Joe Gambino Chevrolet shortly thereafter. For years, Mr. Gambino lived the life he had always dreamed of and enjoyed the privilege of being the furthest Chevrolet dealer west in the country. People flocked from miles around to visit Joe Gambino Chevrolet because of their honest, up-front business model: We're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.At Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet, we believe a trusting relationship with our customers is the best way to run a business. We don't just want one-time customers; we want you to purchase vehicles from us for generations to come. We want you to become a part of the Gateway Chevrolet family, and believe, just as Joe Gambino, Sr did, that a family run business is the best type of business.
A lot of things have changed over the years, but two things remain the same. A family owned business with over 30 years of experience in the Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale and greater Arizona area, and our philosophy: we're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.
In 1997, Joe Gambino Chevrolet became Gateway Chevrolet and in January 2002, they moved from their old location on East Van Buren to a brand-new state of the art facility in the Avondale Automall located at 9901 W. Papago Freeway. The new location provided expanded service bays, comfortable customer areas and even more room for inventory; but most importantly, an ease of business that can only be translated into happy customers.Joe Gambino, Sr has a son Joseph (or Joe Jr.) Joe Jr's affinity for rare automobiles and to be just like his dad led him into the business at a young age. When Joe Jr was 23, he became a sales person at Gateway Chevrolet. His determination for success and perfection led him up through the ranks until 2010 when he became the General Manager of Gateway Chevrolet. Committed to selling cars at a great price and maintaining a positive relationship with the community, Joe Gambino, Jr. and Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet have become a staple in the Phoenix and Greater Arizona area.

I am frustrated that I scheduled an appointment for my vehicle and it wasn't looked at until 3 days later. On top of this, it wasn't even completed. When dropping off the car, I was quoted 3 days for the vehicle and it wasn't looked at until 3 days later. On top of this, it wasn't even completed. When dropping off the car, I was quoted 3 days for the AC to be even looked at but that the oil change could be done during the appointment. I decided just to leave the car to see if it could be done sooner than 3 days, even though I had an appointment for it to be done. On Monday, I was quoted a cost for the AC. Due to the cost, I decided to hold off on it but the oil change hadn't been completed in the 3 days the car was there. I ended up waiting another 2 hours at the dealership and it still wasn't completed even though I was told that could have been done during my appointment time 3 days earlier. Why wasn't it done? I'm confused as to why I have to make an appointment if that scheduled time isn't going to be honored. I don't' know if it's connected, but when I arrive to have service, including on this visit, I'm told which rep will be with me when I arrive. But then that rep comes up to my car and ask me why I'm there. I'm apparently on that person's schedule, I shouldn't have to give them a run down of why I'm there when it's on their paper. No one seems to know what they're doing. I really wish my time was valued. That's what a scheduled visit is for. The rep was nice and gave me a discount on the cost of the diagnostic of the AC but I won't be back to this location again. More
